OpenAI has rolled out a new update to ChatGPT-4o, and according to CEO Sam Altman, it is already delivering impressive results. In a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter), Altman described the latest iteration as “pretty good” while teasing even bigger advancements on the horizon.
“The team is cooking,” Altman wrote, hinting at ongoing work to enhance ChatGPT-4o further. Although details remain sketchy, his remarks suggest that OpenAI is aggressively iterating to improve its flagship AI model’s capabilities. This shouldn’t come as a surprise as China-based DeepSeek has created quite a stir, putting indirect pressure on the likes of ChatGPT.
Altman, meanwhile claimed that ChatGPT-4o is now “the best search product on the web.” It’s a rather interesting comment as Altman is hinting at taking on Google and other traditional search engines, signaling OpenAI’s ambition to redefine how users find and interact with information online.
Altman’s posts on X come at at time when competition in the AI space is certainly heating up. While OpenAI has yet to disclose specific metrics or benchmarks, Altman’s confidence suggests that ChatGPT-4o is on a trajectory to take on rising competition.
We should hear more on ChatGPT-4o when OpenAI reveals more about the update model. In the meantime, Altman encourages users to explore the latest version and share their feedback.
